The Zedu weekly wrap - bringing together the best in free ultrasound news, views and opinions from across the internet.

Zedu Weekly Wrap – 27 March 2026

If you’ve spent any time hunting for fuel this week…

you’ll know how quickly “business as usual” can unravel. One minute everything’s ticking along, the next you’re recalibrating, planning ahead, and hoping you’re not the one who gets caught short. It’s a timely reminder that systems only work when the right resources are where they’re needed, when they’re needed.

In ultrasound, that resource isn’t fuel – it’s skill. Access to quality training, meaningful supervision, and clear standards is what keeps clinical practice moving with confidence. When those are in place, things flow. When they’re not, progress slows. At Zedu, we’re focused on keeping that pipeline strong – building capability that’s reliable, repeatable, and ready when it counts.

If you’ve been meaning to sharpen your skills, support your team, or take a more structured approach to ultrasound training, consider this your nudge. No urgency, no pressure – just an open invitation to take the next step when the time’s right.

Highlights from this week’s news feeds to check out:

  • Pediatric musculoskeletal ultrasound of the elbow: a pictorial review (21 March)
  • Exploring midwives’ practice patterns and capacity for obstetric ultrasound imaging: Towards a multicentre longitudinal materno-foetal research readiness in a low-resource setting (27 March).

And be sure to register for the first Block it Like It’s Hot live video session on knee regional anaesthesia – registration details below.

Signing off for the week.

Keep your probes clean and the gel warm.
